The survey lasts until April 20. I'm glad transport Canada is looking into it.

Edit: thanks @Quilotoa@lemmy.ca for pointing out that I got the date wrong.

I'm in Washington state and dude, every year they get brighter and brighter. It has to stop. We need a vehicular headlights standard communication system... You see my lights, I see your lights so we both dimm automatically. Or maybe the headlights have a side light that turns off. So if your headlight sees the light from a different car then your lights point elsewhere or the LED goes dim just for that side. Or maybe the lights synchronize and every driver wears glasses that synchronize to their light. Each car communicates the synchronization frequency. A device then polarizes the lenses of each driver such that they only see their own reflected light. Or maybe each light is on for a certain period of milliseconds at a time and the glasses then become dark when the other car's lights are on for a few milliseconds.

Just limit the light levels and require a gradual fall-off instead of the harsh line of projector headlights that blind everyone when you go over a bump. We don't need more finicky systems that make cars more expensive and increase repair costs.
